Deciphering the Molecular Interplay Between RXLR-Encoded Avr Genes and NLRs During Phytophthora infestans Infection in Potato: A Comprehensive Review Open
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a globally significant staple crop that faces constant threats from Phytophthora infestans, the causative agent of late blight (LB). The battle between Phytophthora infestans and its host is driven by the m…

Biocomposite Films of Amylose Reinforced with Polylactic Acid by Solvent Casting Method Using a Pickering Emulsion Approach Open
Binary and ternary blends of amylose (AM), polylactic acid (PLA), and glycerol were prepared using a Pickering emulsion approach. Various formulations of AM/PLA with low PLA contents ranging from 3% to 12% were mixed with AM matrix and rei…

A Walk on the Wild Side: Genome Editing of Tuber-Bearing Solanum bulbocastanum Open
Solanum bulbocastanum is a wild diploid tuber-bearing plant. We here demonstrate transgene-free genome editing of S. bulbocastanum protoplasts and regeneration of gene-edited plants. We use ribonucleoproteins, consisting of Cas9 and sgRNA,…

Characterization of different high amylose starch granules. Part Ⅱ: Structure evolution during digestion and distinct digestion mechanisms Open
The objective of this research was to unravel the digestion of high amylose (AM) starch (HAS) granules through comparison of digestion of eight different types of HAS granules obtained from maize, potato, wheat, and barley. Unexpectedly, t…

A Comparison of Cellulose Nanocrystals and Nanofibers as Reinforcements to Amylose-Based Composite Bioplastics Open
Starch-based bioplastics offer a promising alternative to conventional plastics. However, they exhibit certain limitations, notably in terms of mechanical strength and barrier properties. These challenges could potentially be addressed thr…

Prehistoric Plant Exploitation and Domestication: An Inspiration for the Science of De Novo Domestication in Present Times Open
De novo domestication is a novel trend in plant genetics, where traits of wild or semi-wild species are changed by the use of modern precision breeding techniques so that they conform to modern cultivation. Out of more than 300,000 wild pl…

Beneficial glycaemic effects of barley bread compared to wheat bread in type 2 diabetes Open
Background : Cereals foods with a high content of dietary fibres or amylose have potential to lower postprandial glucose levels. Optimisation of cereal foods may delay development of or improve management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods …

Different genetic strategies to generate high amylose starch mutants by engineering the starch biosynthetic pathways Open
This review systematically documents the major different strategies of generating high-amylose (HAS) starch mutants aiming at providing high resistant starch, by engineering the starch biosynthesis metabolic pathways. We identify three mai…

Synthetic Strigolactone GR24 Improves Arabidopsis Somatic Embryogenesis through Changes in Auxin Responses Open
Somatic embryogenesis in Arabidopsis encompasses an induction phase requiring auxin as the inductive signal to promote cellular dedifferentiation and formation of the embryogenic tissue, and a developmental phase favoring the maturation of…

The effect of phytoglobin overexpression on the plant proteome during nonhost response of barley (Hordeum vulgare) to wheat powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici) Open
Nonhost resistance, a resistance of plant species against all nonadapted pathogens, is considered the most durable and efficient immune system in plants. To increase our understanding of the response of barley plants to infection by powder…

Transcriptional and Metabolic Changes Associated with Phytoglobin Expression during Germination of Barley Seeds Open
To understand how the class 1 phytoglobin is involved in germination process via the modulation of the nitric oxide (NO) metabolism, we performed the analysis of physiological and molecular parameters in the embryos of transgenic barley (H…

The Hypoxic Proteome and Metabolome of Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) with and without Phytoglobin Priming Open
Overexpression of phytoglobins (formerly plant hemoglobins) increases the survival rate of plant tissues under hypoxia stress by the following two known mechanisms: (1) scavenging of nitric oxide (NO) in the phytoglobin/NO cycle and (2) mi…

The Mitogenome of Norway Spruce and a Reappraisal of Mitochondrial Recombination in Plants Open
Plant mitogenomes can be difficult to assemble because they are structurally dynamic and prone to intergenomic DNA transfers, leading to the unusual situation where an organelle genome is far outnumbered by its nuclear counterparts. As a r…

Expression of starch-binding factor CBM20 in barley plastids controls the number of starch granules and the level of CO2 fixation Open
Interference in protein–starch interactions in barley by the expression of an exogenous high-affinity starch-binding factor (Carbohydrate-Binding Motif 20, CBM20) reveals a link between starch granule biosynthesis and the level of photosyn…

Oxygen: friend and foe! Open
It is generally believed that the Earth's atmosphere did not contain oxygen until around 2500 million years ago (Mya) when oxygen-evolving photosynthetic bacteria arose. At around 800–500 Mya, the oxygen concentration increased sharply to …
